    The AC voltage across a resistance can be measured using a : [JEE Main Online Paper (Held On 11 April 2015)]  

    A)  potentiometer

    B)  moving coil galvanometer

    C)  moving magnet galvanometer

    D)  hot wire voltmeter

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

      In a potentiometer, the null point will fluctuate due to varying current & voltage. In the moving magnet /coil galvanometer, the dial will be unsteady due to varying current through it. In hot wire voltmeter, the principle of heat due to current is used to measure the voltage. \[{{P}_{avg}}=\frac{V_{RMS}^{2}}{R}\] \[\therefore \]\[V_{RMs}^{2}=R\,{{P}_{avg}}\] \[\therefore \]\[\]
